Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect ofBushen-Huoxue decoction combined with oral calcium and vitamin D for senile osteoporosis.Methods A total of 120 patients with OP were enrolled and randomly divided into aBushen-Huoxue decoction group (60 patients) and a elcatonin group (60 patients). Routine use of calcium and vitamin D was adopted. On this basis, theBushen-Huoxue decoction group was treated byBushen-Huoxue decoction combined with oral calcium and vitamin D, while the elcatonin group was treated by intramuscular injection of elcatonin with oral calcium and vitamin D. VAS of low back pain and bone joint pain was evaluated, the changes of BMD in the lumbar spine and femoral neck was observed, serum calcium and phosphorus, ALP concentration changes were also observed.Results After the treatment, the low back pain in the Bushen-Huoxue decoction group (3.30 ± 0.38vs.4.32 ± 0.51,t=11.148), bone joint pain (3.15 ± 0.22vs.3.87 ± 0.26,t=11.880) VAS were significantly lower than those in the elcatonin group.Bushen-Huoxue decoction group L2-4is BMD (L2: 0.74 ± 0.15 g/cm2vs.0.63 ± 0.14 g/cm2,t=4.153; L3: 0.75 ± 0.13 g/cm2vs. 0.70 ± 0.10 g/cm2,t=2.361; L4: 0.76 ± 0.06 g/cm2vs.0.71 ± 0.10 g/cm2,t=3.321) were significantly higher than those in the elcatonin group(P<0.05).Bushen-Huoxue decoction group serum calcium (2.36 ± 0.45 mmol/Lvs. 2.19 ± 0.17mmol/L,t=2.737), serum phosphorus (1.28 ± 0.12 mmol/Lvs.1.22 ± 0.13 mmol/L,t=2.627) were significantly higher than those in the elcatonin group (P<0.05), ALP (89.20 ± 9.41 U/Lvs.114.00 ± 11.80 U/L, t=12.733) was significantly lower than that in the elcatonin group (P<0.01).ConclusionBushen-Huoxue decoction can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of senile osteoporosis, and elevate BMD content. Its efficiency was better than intramuscular injection of elcatonin.
